custom reports

[Michael McKay]

Seems so.  I had the same reaction at first but after working with it for a
few hours, I found it wasn't all that bad.  One benefit is that it gives a
lot more flexibility than many other programs with custom report editors.
Quicken or Quickbooks are really limited in this regard.  Even some of the
big enterprise systems with fancy report editors have limitations.  GNU
Cash, on the other hand, appears to have plenty of GNU Cash users and
developers around the planet who, apparently, don't sleep and who are
willing to lend a hand.  Some may have already developed that custom report
you are looking for.

If you know what you want, ask and you may get it.

Yours,

I'm shocked. According to my reading of the Gnucash documentation and a
couple of web searches, I have to learn scheme and hack Gnucash in order to
create custom reports. Is this really true?
